sparkymonster lays down the facts on Amanda's latest fail. Between this and the response to criticism of Evelyn/Evelyn? No limits on the fail.
Some of the pictures at Sparkymonsters post are potentially triggering images of racist violence. Be warned.

All the while that dirtbag Amanda Palmer can have a field day with ablism and telling people it's hipster-irony to give money to the Klan and the only people who will notice and raise a fuss are people in a few pockets on the internet who notice and give a shit about oppression and equality.
We live in a very fucked-up world.

Thanks for the warning about the pictures. I looked anyway but yeah, the reality of Naziism is ... sobering.

I'm sure it also helped that, as the Germans had already shown, mobilizing for war on a large scale helps get countries out of the throes of a deep depression.

It wasn't only Nazi Germany that endorsed Eugenic theories between the wars- it was, frighteningly, a commonplace throughout the 'developed' world.

No wonder she's apologetic. With some fans you can do no wrong, and after a while that will only validate your stupid.

Palmer is rapidly becoming the Troll of the music industry.
